How does the center of mass velocity of the two objects which collide change during an...

How does the center of mass velocity of the two objects which collide change during an elastic collision? Inelastic collision? Explain. In an inelastic collision, the forces between the two gliders are equal and opposite according to newtons 3rd law. What makes the energy gained by one object unequal (less) than the energy lost by the other in an inelastic collision?

Two 1.0 metric ton cars crash into each other. Both collide head-on, and each was travelling 27 mi/hr when the collision occurred. The wreckage is at rest after the collision. How much thermal energy was gained by the cars and road in the collision? (in case you are worried, these were driverless vehicles with no passengers inside! Recall that a 100 W lightbulb uses up 100 Joules of energy in 1 second. If there was a way that the thermal...

One object is at rest, and another is moving. The two collide in a one-dimensional, completely inelastic collision. In other words, they stick together after the collision and move off with a common velocity. Momentum is conserved. The speed of the object that is moving initially is 22 m/s. The masses of the two objects are 3.2 and 8.0 kg. Determine the final speed of the two-object system after the collision for the case (a) when the large-mass object is...
